Hope you feel better today
weird day, I had a hypoglycemia reaction and anxiety flush while walking home. Skipping the gym and eating as per a diabetic incident (I’m not) and feel better
the winning team of lower calories, more activity and peri I think

Happierwithouthim · 04/01/2023 20:19

Wow we women have a lot to deal with, that was frightening for you.

I handled today better but equally I'm not as nauseous either

It was as I thought I was going to have to sit down in the street,
carb refill and I’m fine

TheNewlmprovedMrsMadEvans · 04/01/2023 23:11

Bless you life so glad you are feeling much better now 💐

Happierwithouthim · 05/01/2023 19:23

lifelongfrugaleer · 06/01/2023 19:49

Used my calorie deficit for chocolate. Lidl isn’t as good as Aldi

TheNewlmprovedMrsMadEvans · 06/01/2023 21:17

Although Lindt is my favourite of all Smile

So 1.5 off this week not feeling much better and back in the zone
I have a weights routine I can do on the gym floor note that goes around my elbow

lifelongfrugaleer · 08/01/2023 11:26

Now not not

Unescorted · 08/01/2023 14:39

Life any loss at this time of year is good going. I didn't seem to be losing anything since before Christmas so got the tape measure and my record book out because I was so demoralised. It was good to see how far I have come since August even if this week has been very static.

Mrs I am shortest in our house too DS has grown like a weed and DD has started standing up straight now she realises I am shorter than she is.

I have been busy cursing all the January starters at the gym. I am being very bad and wishing they all fail to keep up their resolutions.

lifelongfrugaleer · 08/01/2023 15:05

Me too unescorted can’t get into my regular classes cos of them

Gensola · 08/01/2023 19:07

hi guys I’m back if you’ll have me 😁 I weighed today and have regained all the weight I lost before the wedding in 2022 🙈 steps bad today but did a workout and food was ok.

lifelongfrugaleer · 08/01/2023 19:18

Welcome back gen, course we will have you.
how are you feeling now?

lifelongfrugaleer · 08/01/2023 19:19

I’ve guessed dinner as can’t weigh when mil is here, I aim I’ve had all 1700 calories but made the mistake of having icebream and struggling not to binge
